Destiny Only Han

Wuzhou Fortress, the sound of killing was loud.

Han Xinling's flag was waved, and the Han army at the head of the city immediately launched a counterattack against the attacking Huns.

The first to respond were the buzzing sounds from the crossbows that could only be opened with both hands and feet, and the feathered arrows like locusts pierced through the air, pointing directly at the Hun sculpture archers with their bows and arrows in the distance. .

The production cycle of each crossbow with huge energy storage is more than two years, and because of the problem of raw materials, maintenance and repairs are usually required after not firing many times, and the materials require unique and expensive crossbows. It is a very cost-effective thing to shoot ordinary unarmored soldiers.

In layman's terms, anti-aircraft guns hit mosquitoes...

Therefore, only those eagle shooters with feathers on their heads are worthy of shooting.

Liu Ying lay on the top of the city and looked out, and saw that the place covered by crossbow arrows, the Huns' eagle shooters fell down like mowing grass, and the remaining eagle shooters turned around and ran away without stopping, only hating that their parents didn't give them a hand. Give yourself two more legs.

As the most elite existence among the Xiongnu soldiers, they have the right to independently judge the risks of the battlefield and choose to attack and retreat.

So Liu Ying's face-shielding helmet resounded in a loud voice: "The mace is ready...to release!"

On the top of the city, the soldiers of the Han army who had already been waiting in full battle raised the wooden stick covered with iron nails and threw it down the city. They heard a scream of distress. round, and took back the 'mace' that was thrown down.

Although this kind of defensive tool is a bit rough and simple, it is undoubtedly a big killer for the Xiongnu soldiers who are attacking the city with ants and lack of iron armor. Anyone who is hit by the mace is basically an immortal. .

This is evident from the bloodstains on the iron nails.

On the other side, relying on the iron armor he was wearing, Lu Matong probed outside the city wall, looking for the place where the attacking Hun soldiers gathered.

Under the guidance of his constant gestures, Gengjiehou Liu Xin, who was thrown by Liu Ying to accumulate military merits, immediately scooped up the tumbling molten iron in the iron smelting furnace with a long-handled iron spoon, and poured it down the city with all his strength.

When the red molten iron was scalded by moxibustion, the leather jackets on the Xiongnu soldiers' bodies were instantly scorched and large holes appeared. The skin melted instantly where the molten iron flowed, and the pain was piercing and piercing.

In an instant, the shrill howling sound even overwhelmed the rumbling cowhide war drums on the top of the city.

But on the top of the city, there are cheers!
Here is the territory of the great Han.

Invaders must be prepared to die first!
There was a bit of unbearable expression on Liu Ying's face, but it was fleeting.

This is the place where the two armies are fighting. You will die and live, and there will be no mercy!
In the distance, Ji Porridge frowned, holding a scimitar in his hand, and wandering around in place, like a hungry wolf driven into a corner.

He did not expect that the Han army at the top of the city could come up with so many tricks in such a short period of time, especially the kind of crossbow arrows with extremely long range, which suppressed the eagle shooters of the Huns.

In this way, the siege warriors could only bite the bullet and forcibly climb up with ropes or ladders, and then be smashed down by the wooden stick with iron nails...

Especially the red molten iron poured from the top of the city, although it did not cause too many casualties to the attacking Huns, the blow to morale was extremely fatal!
"Despicable, shameless... a cunning fox, a grouse that only flops on the ground..."

Ji Porridge jumped on the spot cursing, and forcibly ordered all the commanders around him to attack the city to replace the frightened Xiongnu soldiers!

He didn't ask people to replace the surrendered Qin border troops. The obvious reason was that those people had lost their temper and rushed towards the city almost desperately.

But the deeper reason is that those people's loyalty to Modu is far greater than his.

After all, when Jiuyuan County was breached, the massacre was carried out, and Mao Dun spared their lives. Among them, those bachelors without wives were given one or two Hun women!
returning a Favour many times more.

In this era when nationalism was not yet extreme, the Qin frontier army who surrendered to the Huns did not consider themselves traitors.

Therefore, this can be regarded as a kind of reward to the emperor on the golden stage...

But on the top of the city, although the attackers are not afraid of death, after all, they don't have any effective siege equipment, and the most important thing is that there are also generations of weapons and armor.

Especially the Qin State-style iron armor on his body, which is bulky and rough, and cannot be compared with the infantry armor worn by soldiers of the Han Army.

So although they were fighting hard, under the blow of arrows raining on the city and rolling wood and stones, the soldiers who attacked the city fell like cutting leeks, but Wuzhou fortress remained motionless.

With a feathered arrow stuck in his shoulder, Zuo Guduhou staggered and ran in front of Ji Porridge, and shouted: "Youxian King, retreat! The Han army is too fierce, and our troops have suffered heavy losses. It's really... It is really impossible to attack!"

Concentrating on looking at Wuzhou Fortress, where the battle was shaking and corpses were strewn all over the place, he said angrily, "If we can't attack, I will attack. I only want the heads of the generals of the Han army... Anyone who dares to retreat privately will be executed immediately!"

He stared like a wolf at the auxiliary minister next to Mao Dun: "You are no exception!"

Zuo Guduhou stared back without showing any weakness: "Hehe, you are just a right virtuous king, neither Zuo virtuous king nor Tu Qi (tú qí), you are not qualified enough to kill me!"

Tu Qi, which means "virtuous" in the Huns, is usually a title given to the prince.

In the Xiongnu system, the virtuous kings below Shanyu have the highest status, and they are the highest officials in charge of the Central Chanyu Headquarters, and the Huns respect the left, so the power status of the virtuous king of the left is higher than that of the virtuous king of the right, and the virtuous king of the left is Shanyu is the deputy prince, so he often regards the prince as Zuo Xianwang.

And Zuo Guduhou's original surname is Huyan, which is one of the three noble surnames of the Huns after the Hunda clan of the Huns' Great Chanyu!

Well, the remaining two are the Lan family, the right and left of the hereditary ministers; and the Xubu family, the right and left of the family who have been in charge of government affairs and wars for generations.

The reason why Zuo Gudu dared to challenge the Congdaji porridge was that the Xiongnu was a nomadic military regime.

In addition to Shanyu himself who commanded the army and came to the battle in person, other virtuous kings, King Guli, and even the households also had military power. There were 24 military chiefs who commanded Wanqi, called Wanqichang. These 24 Wanqi The chiefs each set up thousands of chiefs, hundred chiefs, ten chiefs and other officials.

The Huyan clan, represented by Zuo Guduhou, controls a total of four Wanqi!

Zuo Gudu looked at Zuo Gudu in silence for a long time, just when Zuo Gudu felt that he was intimidated by Zuo Gujiu, he saw a flash of bright knife light, followed by a burst of dizziness.

After his head rolled a few times on the ground, his long and narrow eyes reflected a slanted man standing sideways, and the expression on his face seemed to say:
You, dare to kill me?
The generals of the Huns who witnessed all this were in an uproar, and some generals of the Huyan clan even wanted to rush over and fight for their lives.

Duo Jijiu took two quick steps, grabbed Zuo Guduhou's head, held it up high, and said loudly: "In the name of the God of Canglang, I, the eldest son of Maodun Da Chanyu, the right sage king of the Xiongnu, Duo Jijiu, extend my condolences to you. Guaranteed, whoever can attack the Han army first will be the next Zuo Gudu!"

After he finished speaking, he grabbed a bloody head and showed it to the surroundings. His gaze like a hungry wolf suppressed all the generals of the Huyan family who were about to move.

But those descendants of the Huyan clan who had been marginalized in the past suddenly became excited and their breathing became short of breath.

Such an opportunity is absolutely not to be missed!

Even if they can't be the left bones in the end, but if they can hold the thighs of the porridge, it also means that they have a future with infinite possibilities!
Wasn't Zuo Guduhou, who was held in his hand by Tonganji Porridge, officially became Zuoguduhou because he followed Maodun and killed Tou Manchanyu?
He can, why can't he?

In an instant, Liu Ying, who was standing on the top of the wall directing the throwing of the 'mace', felt that things seemed to be getting worse now.

Huns, crazy!

Kill a Hun with a mace, and two will appear immediately!

Liu Ying pulled out the sword at her waist in a flash, and when a Hun who was about to ascend the wall didn't notice him, she thrust the sword into the opponent's chest obliquely, and immediately before he had time to launch a counterattack Time to take a quick step back.

This is the fighting skill that Chongda taught him.

When the long sword penetrates the human body and is pulled out quickly, the strength will flow out along with the blood. At this time, as long as you don't get hit by the dying counterattack, it is a perfect kill!

The soaring adrenaline also made Liu Ying ignore the dizziness caused by the first murder, and ignored the blood rushing out.

You die, I live!
The battlefield where life and death are instant is a stage where people can grow up quickly.

On the top of the city, seeing Liu Ying kill a Hun neatly, the surrounding Han soldiers suddenly burst into thunderous cheers.

If a child is so brave, how can veterans who have fought for more than ten years fall behind?
Han Xin looked around at the soldiers of the Han army who burst into seeds instantly, and a trace of regret flashed in his heart.

He overestimated the combat power of the Huns on the opposite side.

If we had known this earlier, we shouldn’t have completely blocked the city gates. Otherwise, when morale was soaring, we would open the city gates and fight the Huns in a decisive battle. Not to mention wiping out the tens of thousands of Huns, at least half of them would be killed!
However, Han Xin immediately shook his head and put this regretful emotion behind him.

The reason why he chose to enter Wuzhou Fortress was not that he couldn't beat the Huns head-on, but for Liu Ying's safety.

This is his brother, a ray of sunshine in the warm winter that once gave him!
As for the killing of the Huns, it would be cheaper than that shameless father of his dearest brother...

On the mountain road north of Mayi City, Liu Bang, who was constantly wiping his nose, suddenly sneezed loudly, causing the horses beside him to jump up and down uncontrollably.

"Who? And who is scolding Nai Gong?"
